Shameless magazine, issue 12
The new issue of Shameless is here! It’s packed with great stories, including:
Things we didn’t learn this summer: Monique Woolnough reflects on her years at camp and asks why the lessons about Native culture are so wrongAbby Blinch teaches us how to build a better bonfire
Nicole Cohen watches the credits on Hollywood blockbusters and wonders who the writers are
Kate Bornstein talks about why we need more gender outlaws
Saintsierra Leonty shares what it’s like to live without residency status
The Parkdale Street Writers show us their stuff
Zahra Rasul gives us a history lesson about a controversial fashion accessory
plus: decode your political personality in our first Shameless quiz! (Why should bad women’s magazines have all the fun?)
If you’re in Toronto this weekend, make sure to come grab a copy at Word on the Street. If you’re outside the city, look for issues on a newsstand near you or subscribe online.

Woop! Excited about learning to build a bonfire... seriously, my total lack of Girl Guide skills is very frustrating at times.

I laughed to myself for way too long over that.
Especially thinking back to the quizzes my friends use to read out of 'pop' and other crap.
:) Hope to pick it up soon!

I just picked up this issue over the weekend at Word on the Street. It is my first introduction to Shameless and I must say it is a wonderful magazine. Thank you to all who contribute, more magazines such as this should exist.

Shameless prides itself on the diversity of opinions expressed by our writers, and we encourage and appreciate different points of view. Our intention at Shameless is to foster community and to maintain a safe and positive blogging environment; we do not consider it our duty to give a voice to anybody with an opinion.
Discussion on this site is moderated. We will delete comments that:
(We get to decide what's discriminatory, hateful, attacking, or inflammatory).
In some cases, we will cap off comments on a discussion when we feel they are spiralling out of control and fostering an unwelcoming space for bloggers and readers. Comments will be closed by the Web Editor, unless the post is by the Web Editor, in which case the Editor in Chief will close them.
If your comments repeatedly make the same point, they may be deleted. This also applies to comments made by multiple members of the same organization.
Your comments should be about the topic of the post, not its writer—although we certainly encourage praise for our writers, if you want to say something nice.
